SOME SUGGESTIONS.

There is one thing which the coming
convention shonld guard against in
framing the State Constitution, and
that is the too frequent changes of the
document. It is the curse of many
States that their constitutions are sub
ject to constant alteration. An agits-
tor or "reformer" gets it into his head
that change is needed, and he keeps the
people in a fermept until his PROPOSE
ton, which may be a vain and cranky
one, has b en- voted on; the expense is
enormous, the disquietlng effect is bad
and the change may or may not be an
improvement. 1t too often happens
that the alteration is injurious. Cali
Asrnia has amended" her Constitution
several times, and We believe it is gener-
ally conceded has made it worse on each
occasion. We have at our command the
craftsmanship and political wisdom of
-sentury in the matter of forming State
constitutions. We should know what
are wise and Whist unwise and undesir-
able provisions in suc6 documents, and
We ought, therefore, to be able to take
the best and steer clear of the worst.
The community for the protection and
government of which this Constitution
is to be formed, is in some respects I'M
IKE any other commonwealth in Amer
iOa, bot the delegates TO the convention
coming from every section of the Ter
rtory and being thoroughly represen-
tative men, the distinctive and peculiar
chsracle-issies Of the Utah community |
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1887-06-24

will necessarily be carefully considered
and provided for in framing the Consti-
tuition. Knowing what is wanted and
having the ability and wisdom requi-
site, the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES be able to
frame a constitution which will require
no alteration for at least ten years, by
which time the changed condition of
the community may make amendments
and improvements desirable.
EiTHE HERALD hopes the convention viii
give this matter earnest consideration
We have many times noted the evil and
injurious influences and effects of too
frequent constitutional changes, and
hope the people OF Utah will be spared
the infection which Expresses other
communities. Another evil which
should be guarded against is the per
missien OF hasty and inconsiderate
changes. Every proposition for change
should be held long enough before being
acted upon to enable the public to be-
come thoroughly familiar with the
matter, and TO get over the temporary
enthusiasm which may be inspired in
its favor. People sometimes move
wildly, like SO many sheep, and they |
should be protected against the bad eff
fects of their own thoughtlessness and |
want of discretion. In some States
proposed constitutional amendment
must be approved by too legislatures te-
fore it can be submitted to the people
Tor ratification or rejection. The pro-
vision seems wise one, for it enables
he people to familiarize themselves
With the matter, and to avoid acting
hastily.

ITS FRIENDS AND ENEMIES.

The very best evidence that could be
presented of the fact that Statehood
will be beneficial to Utah is shown in
the opposition to the movement. The
only opponents to the scheme are few
irresponsible, non-taxpaying, non
property owning adventures, who have
nothing to gain from State govern
ment. Under the Territorial system of
oppression and misrule these fellows
can scratch together enough to keep
them alive by agitation and strife; but
if Utah were 2 State their occupation
would be gone, for they could not find
listeners and would be unable 10 prey
upon their betters. The solid men of
the country, almost without exception,
the men who own the property and
pay the taxes, and who are interested in
having peace and prosperity, express
themselves in favor of Statehood. Gen
tiles ana Mormons, Democrats and Re
publicens are known to be favor
able to the scheme, and they will
work for its success. The intelligent
classes, the bona fide citizens, no mat
ter what their faith or politics, have |
grown weary of this eternal jangle |
which keeps the Territory in constant
turmoil; they are tired of Territorial
misrule, and DESTROYS of change which
will enable the people TO pull together
for the good and glory of this fair Ter
ritOry and its thrifty commonwealth.
When the best men in a community
the men who are most interested in the
peace, prosperity and general welfare of
the public. declare themselves in favor
Of movement for the public coed, it
may be accepted that that movement is
right and proper. Such is the case now
IN regard TO the Statehood proposition
When the Adventures, the blather-
sixties and irresponsibles, oppose
scheme designed for the general well ,
fare, you may regard it as certain that -,
the scheme should be carried through ;
to success.
Statehood is the cry of the best men +
n Utah, and the anti-Statehood por- y
ion is led by a handful of fellows who q
lave nothing to gain or lose in Utah, =
whose property all lies under their hats. y
md who may next week be as much at o
ZONE in Nevada, Idaho or Montana, as n
hey are at home in this Territory to- II

As # women were not already de-
voted to their looking glasses, a writer
in Boston paper urges them to study
themselves more through the mirror
He says they should practice talking,
smiling and eating before their mirrors,
and correct the grimaces with which
they favor the world around them.
Society women, he says. should learn to
smile, to be charming, not to screw
their faces into knots, or to fall into
tricks with their features. An agree
able smile, without afectation, grace
full carriage, are only results of train
ing, and they become habits quite as
easily as less pleasing tricks and man
nerisms. There are women who ap-
pear tolerably well in repose, yet the
instant they speak or laugh change to
the grotesque and worry the beholder
almost to death. A sweet and gracious
manner is always worth cultivating,
even if it takes a mirror to bring it 10
perfection,
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1887-06-24
AN AMUSING QUARREL.

Oar friends the enemy, that is to say,
the Liberals who have fought to in
glorious defeat so many political battles,
and who have never won once, propose
to rush madly into further slaughter.
Ignoring the fact that there is a Demo-
cratic organization eager for fame and
Offices, that there are Republicans
clamorous for notoriety and fat places,
the Liberals insist upon working up the
anti-Mormon tickets to be voted for
at the coming election, and floating
their tickets under the odorous and
odlous title of Liberal" Meantime the
boss Democrats and the boss Repub-
licans are almost beside themselves with
rage. They realize that the Liberals
have the advantage, and that others
must surrender to them, train under
the oisreputable banner, and hide their
own political identity, or not train at
all. This would be very interesting if
it weren't so decidedly ridiculous.
The factions make as much noise
and fuss over the business as
they would if there were really some
thing at stake. They talk as Il they |
feared the absence of harmony in the |
ranks endangered the
election, and was liable to bring defeat
to the conspirators; whereas if there
were union so close and perfect that |
t would include and comprise sill the
discontinued and warning elements, the
defeat OF the combination would be al
most as complete and overwhelming as
that which awaits the factions acting
1t is this fact that the
quarrel is over imaginary and impos-
sible spoils, which makes the contention
so amusing to the onlooker familiar
with the situation. After the election,
perhaps our friends the enemy will
wonder what they qusrreIed over.

OF COURSE the rsbid Liberals who ar
living by agitation care nothing abou :
this Statehood movement; they know
it cannot succeed, and are therefore in
different in the matter. But all the
same more nervous lot of fellows
never was seen. They cannot help
showing fear that their occupations viii
soon be gone.
